I saw you cry yesterday You sat on the floor With your head down low Your eyes grew glossy And I didn't know What to do
I whispered your name And held your cheek I kissed your lips And said I love you
And you cried First one tear fell Then a second Then a third And my heart sank With every drop of water
I held your face in my hands And sat with you And told you I loved you And kissed your cheeks and lips
You told me nothing was wrong As you stared at the ground And rubbed your tired eyes
I was afraid I was afraid it was then end I was afraid I'd done something I was afraid
My heart hurt Because you wouldn't talk to me You wouldn't tell me what was wrong You just sat there Staring at your hands Or the ground Or the table Repeating the same lie I've told you a million times
"I'm fine."
So I sat there With tears in my eyes And a shaky breath in my lungs Standing strong for you Because you've done it for me
Then, you told me You told me why you were so hurt What caused your tears And what caused your fears
You told me you were afraid You told me you felt like You couldn't do anything to help me Most of the time And I just stared at you And I couldn't stop my jaw from dropping
I've told you once And I'll tell you a billion times
You are my safe space You are my happy place You are home
When I'm numb You make my heart beat
When I cry You hold me close
When I'm anxious You talk me through it
You're my rock My shelter My best friend My love
You mean everything to me Everything
Please don't doubt me when I say That you're my safe space That you're my safe haven
I love you So so much
When we danced together It was just the two of us There was no one else
I sang to you Every single word With everything in my heart Coming out into words
I mean everything Every single I love you Every single kiss Every tight embrace
When I look into your eyes I can't even explain what I feel What I think
I can only tell you what I know
I know that I love you That you give me butterflies That my heart stops And speeds up all at the same time
